UNTTLD (Simon Belanger)

Luxurious, domineering, and vibrant – three words that solidly define UNTTLD’s incredible showcase of their F/W 2018 collection at Toronto Fashion Week. Adorned with black headdresses (or hats), the models that graced Yorkville Village’s runway flaunted boldcoloured velvet dresses and boss-lady outfits. Since 2011, designer duo Simon Belanger and Jose Manuel Jacques have been creating lux pieces that reflect on masculine feminity to emphasize the capabilities and desires of the modern woman. We had the opportunity to speak to Simon shortly after the show about their one-of-a-kind collection that is truly one to reminisce.

Dr. Sapna Sriram

When she’s not taking care of or teaching her own kids, she’s making sure Canadians know how to take care of themselves especially when it comes to injuries and injury prevention. Dr. Sapna Sriram is a leading Canadian chiropractic physician and award-winning co-founder and CEO of Integra Health Centre. She is an injury expert and recognized for her innovative approaches to performance optimization and injury rehabilitation. We got a chance to ask her all about how and why she founded her facility.

Samar Qureshi - Squared Photo Booth

Confidence and taking chances are two very important factors when it comes to owning and running a business. In the case of Samar Qureshi, co-founder and owner of Squared photo booth, they are the two factors that led to the creation of his business.

André Beauregard – Canus

Customer service is always important and, in this case, it was life-changing. He listened to his client and didn’t just hear a request, but rather he saw potential for a business opportunity. That potential combined with hard work resulted in the birth of Canus, the leading fresh goat’s milk heath and beauty products company. Based on our interview with the founder, Andre Beauregard, it seems 20 year later he is just as dedicated to his customers and clients.

Binny Ahluwalia Of Baked By Binny

Most people have hobbies, but very few people take their hobbies and turn into successful businesses. One of these few people include Binny Ahluwalia, the owner, founder and baker behind Baked by Binny, a business that offers banking services with a focus on luxury cakes and delicious desserts. With it being wedding season, we have wedding fever and our favourite part of a wedding is the dessert table, which seems Binny is an expert on. So, we took the chance to ask her all the details about her very yummy business and journey so far.

Rohingya Refugee Crisis - Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh & World Food Programme

She describes the current situation like, “a never-ending camping trip from hell with no supplies and the monsoons are coming”. Despite the efforts from the World Food Programme (WFP) and numerous other organizations, the Rohingya refugee crisis in Cox’s Bazar is far from over.

Mom & Dad

Get ready, it’s that time of year when posts with mom and dad or about mom and dad are going to start popping up on your news feeds. While the people in our lives that act as our caregivers should not only be celebrated on one day, having specific days set aside for them is a good reminder to cherish and appreciate them. By appreciate and cherish, we don’t just mean posting a picture of them online and saying a few nice words. They deserve much more than that and so we have compiled a few suggestions for both Mother’s Day and Father’s Day that are great ways of showing them an instance of your love.

Something had been missing from this multi-talented woman’s roster, but not anymore.

TFW/BTS: Triarchy

I step out of the subway on a late Monday afternoon, trudging through the snow down Avenue Road, catching glimpses of fellow Toronto Fashion Week attendees. We all gravitate towards the red carpet like a moth to a flame. I step inside and am swept up staircases, past security checkpoints and velvet couches; models elegantly sipping Fiji water from straws between sittings. Today is the first day of Toronto Fashion Week and backstage is buzzing with energy. We had the opportunity to chat with makeup artist Simone Otis, industry legend whose portfolio ranges from the infamous “Got Milk?” ads to Vogue, who was awarded the best editorial makeup artist of the year at the P&G Beauty Awards. Simone partnered up with beautyBoutique by Shoppers Drug Mart and was responsible for the looks behind Triarchy, a sustainable luxury denim brand based out of Toronto and LA spearheaded by brother sister duo Ania and Adam Taubenfligel.

Narces - Nikki Wirthensohn Yassemi

The pattern of after-five outfits did not conclude with UNTTLD on the first day of TFW, Narces presented its incomparable line of meticulously crafted gowns and dresses shortly after. A specialist of vêtements de soirée, head designer Nikki Yassemi exhilarated her audience with unique mesh pieces embellished with ruffles and fringe that are completely fresh to the common eye. SHE met with the dressmaker after showcasing her glamorous collection on the runway, which was heavily inspired by her mother’s early works and strong personal desire to be innovative.
